we have a picture from former cia operative bob baer here to show you. this is showing you what the single impact of saren gas would be if it were launched on the western city of homs in syria. a large swath of the city would be impacted by a single shell. it's estimated 18,000 people would be killed in a day. let's get straight to cnn pentagon correspondent barbara starr. barbara, what have you learned tonight? >> well, you know, as tragic and serious as this is for the people of syria, this now has regional implications throughout the middle east. intelligence services from israel, turkey, jordan, lebanon, all the countries surrounding syria are now talking with the united states around the clock about this very scenario. because if there were to be, god forbid, a chemical attack, the concern is some of that could drift across boreder ed. worse, even as tragic as that would be, what if the regime collapses, terrorists move in, insurgent groups move in and grab some chemical material. they could take it across the borders into the neighbors countries an

i think there are a lot of people including senator bob corker this past weekend and others who have come to embrace that view. i think that it makes a lot of sense for republicans partly because i think if we do wind up going over the fiscal cliff as they say, it's psychologically likely to have a big impact. >> are you getting sources to tell you that's what's in the offers? great philosophy, but on paper? >> the thing is that mechanically would be the easiest thing to do. the trouble is if you do not take that approach, one thing we've heard, for example, is that president obama might embrace a tax rate lower than 39.6%. 37%, 36%, 38%. but if you do that, then actually republicans will have to put their stamp on such a deal, whereas if they actually just allow that part to expire, then they're saying you know what, we did our part but we didn't actually embrace that increase, which to me makes sense. >> let me throw out the speaker. he made comments earlier today. since they came in so late we want to play what he had to say about the latest rounds of offers. >> we're still waitin
